How does the Specialized Stumpjumper Comp compare to the Kona Process 134 DL?

The four-piston brakes, combined with this modern shape, worked well on slow-speed and techy descents, as long as the tyres could keep pace. The Stumpy is very much a classic trail bike. It does everything pretty well – it climbs with the minimum of fuss, covers rolling terrain well enough that I’d happily spin all day on it, and when posed with a technical descent, has enough grunt to get to the bottom without throwing its toys out of the pram. There’s a little pedal bob on the Stumpjumper but, overall, it’s a perfectly competent climber. Russell Burton / Our Media That said, the majority of the time, when the rear suspension was required to support shifts in body weight, whether in a berm or in the upslope of a jump, the support is there to push against.

Though similar on paper, the Process 134 feels like a more specialised machine. It’s much more sluggish on the climbs, and along flatter terrain than the Stumpy, so riders who like big miles might err towards the Specialized. Four-piston brakes are a welcome addition on this very competent descender. Russell Burton / Our Media We offer next working day delivery, if placed before 1.00pm on our normal working days. Please call for costs. A dirt jump bike is designed with a focus on jump dynamics and agility, with optimisation for standing riding and achieving the ideal centre of gravity when taking off. Hardtail or Full Suspension?The Stumpjumper is slightly outgunned in more technical high-speed terrain compared to the other bikes on test. Russell Burton / Our Media Do you love dirt, adrenaline and awesome jumps? With a dirt jump bike from Canyon, you'll be ready for endless thrills and heart-pumping action. What is a dirt jump bike? Shimano’s mid-range SLX drivetrain and brakes are a solid choice, with a 10-51t cassette, 30t ring and snappy brakes that provide tons of power.

However, the GRIP damper always impresses our testers, it’s not as sophisticated as the GRIP2, found on Performance Elite and Factory Fox forks, but I find its lighter tune friendlier on my hands, and 95 per cent of the time, well up to the job. In slopestyle or classic skateparks, hardtail bikes also perform well. The stiff rear end gives you the necessary support to pedal efficiently. A dirt bike with full suspension offers additional travel and greater reserves for higher jumps and particularly rough terrain. What dirt jump bikes does Canyon offer?

A good jumper fits any purpose. Be it for hiking, climbing, for work, or as comfortable casual wear, sporty modern sweaters are always a great choice. Sweaters are an integral part of the modern fashion world and have been for decades. Invented in the 1950s, jumpers have been a quite popular and versatile piece of clothing for a long time. Despite or maybe even due to their sporty and leisure character, jumpers have become fashionable everyday wear. Their many positive characteristics have made jumpers popular as outdoor wear as well. What can you expect of a good jumper? Pop more pressure in there, and the rear end becomes even more stable under power, however one loses the ground-hugging descending capabilities the Stumpy enjoys. While no bikes are immune to bottoming out, there was a bit of a thunk with this Stumpy on the worst terrain – an additional volume spacer should mitigate against this.
